Can a Time Traveler have a Favorite Office Time Waster?

I love books about Time Travel (movies about the topic? Not so much). So when someone told me about the John Titor Times I checked it out immediately.

The site tells the story of a self-professed time traveler named John Titor who claimed to come from the year 2036. According to the site, he started posting on a public Internet forum in November 2000 and left to return to his time on March 21, 2001.

The site contains transcripts of Q&As he had online, during which he made predictions and the like. Reading them five, six years later, many seem purposely useless, at least to this observer. He talks of a Civil War in 2015 that kills nearly 3 billion people but refuses to tell us who wins the 2009 World Series. He says that TV in his time is less centralized, with most shows being produced by individuals and distributed over the Internet. But he never gets around to telling us who wins this season’s “American Idol.” Nor, for that matter, does he even predict the existance of the show, which didn’t premiere until well after he traveled (cue Doc Brown voice): Back to the Future.
